Grants Fly Virus Immunity SMILEY

This makes the only unique thing I have completely worthless, oh joy.  Other than that it is cool though.
#36300229808 05/03/2007 17:30:02 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007

Did you not notice the corrupted fly-people in the screenshot?

Well, the fly virus got pretty well embedded in things way back when.  Perhaps bad viruses are all like smith: returning once and awhile in a somewhat weakened state?

It is kind of weird how that buff is included on the Bandana.

Those are some outlandish buffs. Wow. I want to get that bad.
#36300229829 05/03/2007 17:42:52 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007
Now THAT is interesting, gonna be soooo cool kicking corrupted *CENSORED* again, that fly attack animation was uber.
#36300229830 05/03/2007 17:45:49 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007
So.... the Flies return...

and with them a trio of super-buff clothes? Hm... if this bandanna is mid-level, one wonders what the low- and high-level clothes are. Possibly more Patcher-oriented bandannas.


Can't wait. ^.^

Ooh, wait...is that bandanna grey?
#36300229832 05/03/2007 17:46:55 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007
"glossy white/creme appearance"
#36300229833 05/03/2007 17:47:21 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007
Wow!  Nice work, Rarebit.

I'll definitely be getting this.  I hate those *CENSORED* corrupted, but they do have a cool RSI effect. SMILEY

Trio? I thought there was only going to be one item.
#36300229839 05/03/2007 17:50:11 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007
33% to Heal and Upgrade Area Radius.. SMILEY 
I'd get this for that alone.

Seriously, bout time they gave all the medics something decent.

Hmm...this leads me to believe that the other two might not be bandanas! :O  Cool.

Pssh. Fine. Who reads when there's pictures, anyway? =p

To kou_urake: "...of the three clothing rewards available in the upcoming 'Corrupted' quest" (DN1 Image Retrieval).


Doesn't it look like the girl is throwing a wad of Insecticide in the picture? :3



#36300229844 05/03/2007 17:55:03 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007

/duh

 So, will they be more/less powerful versions of the same bandana a la pandora's box, or are we getting three different things? Hopefully the later... unique clothing ftw!

My hopes for the other two (both genders, of course):

Low level: the white shoes worn by the seraphim

High level: the white/pink suit , see above

#36300229873 05/03/2007 18:48:49 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007
That's one sexy bandana.

I do find the Fly Virus odd, though...foreshadowing perhaps...?  =O

You know, I'd been wondering if we'd ever see the Corrupted again. Looks awesome.
#36300229882 05/03/2007 19:11:04 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007

I don't think he'd like that. I mean, he hasn't taken it off to dry yet.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned this already but it seems to me this is circumstantial confirmation of Morpheus' return. 

Edit: Also; Sweet bandana!  Does anyone know if it's tradeable/repairable/indestructable or anything?

What?  This is The Matrix Online, and that would make too much sense.  Therefore, it can't be true.


I jest. SMILEY

Can someone point me to where this was brought up before?  It's all news to me.  Since when was MXO getting quests?  What are the details?  Is this part of the official story?  Is it just another regurgitation of past events/story arcs?  What's the deal exactly?

Thanks in advance SMILEY

What is being worked on has been given the industry definition of "questy things" by Rarebit. SMILEY

They involve doing some task(s) in order to get a reward in the end.  The first "questy thing" was released a few patches ago that involved Binary Boy and Zero One.  This is the second "questy thing" to be introduced.

According to Rarebit, the patch after the next will include a "questy thing" for lowbies.

EDIT: Typo -_-
#36300229955 05/03/2007 22:26:13 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007
Yessss white bandanas, can't wait to see the other two items.

Red Eye Rasta Lady made a return in the image retrieval! ;O

#36300229962 05/03/2007 23:09:04 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007
its obvious, Neo comes back as a big fly thing, like that film about the fly. just don't arm wrestle him.
#36300229966 05/03/2007 23:34:12 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007
Great, make all the flashy effects have bigger radii. SMILEY

Maybe it won't be so bad with many of the effects toned down.

I bet with the same patch group heals only affect team members. I guess this should solve this problem.
#36300229980 05/04/2007 00:14:47 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007
Now this seems like a whole lot of fun - at first I thought it was gonna be the next storyline mission patch and I was like "hmm, isn't that drifting off the main story a bit?!!!" but then I saw the word "quest" and was much more interested!! The bandana looks awesome, as a lover of bandanas/collector of any type of special item I can get my hands on I'll certainly be giving that a go. The fact that it's "mid range" is encouraging as it means that maybe lower level players will be able to participate in the quest.

Also - Corrupted are back - does this mean our flit guns will work now?!
#36300229987 05/04/2007 00:51:40 Re: Image Retrieval - May 03, 2007
